Success Stories

Integration of new MEDEA project team members

(CC incl. APMP/APLMF secretariats) ensuring knowledge transfer

Challenges

Limited manpower for follow-up on all action plans

EVALUATION OF MEDEA PROJECT STEERING

Continuous improvement of project management procedures

based on lessons learned

Continuous needs assessment

Continuous analysis of participants’ feedback

Limited use of regional capability survey information

No funding of trainees from other RMOs (i.e. AFRIMETS, GULFMET)

THANK YOU!

MEDEA Team would like to thank all parties that have provided

cooperation and collaboration during the course of the project implementation.
